Edgio announced general availability of the Edgio Applications Platform v7.
New integrated performance and security features are designed to increase organizational revenues and accelerate developer team velocity through better website performance and multi-layer security. Through the integrated, unified platform, Edgio reduces the need for multiple point solutions while enabling organizations to deploy applications that are faster, better protect those applications, and boost overall site performance. Edgio's unified platform delivers 90% faster page loads, blocks billions of malicious requests each month and decreases the time it takes to mitigate exploits by 85%.
With the Edgio Applications platform, teams can safely deploy website updates twice as often, while building performance and security directly into their applications through a unified workflow. Integrated with Edgio’s global edge network, the platform helps developers harness the complexity of application architectures and technology stacks and contain the spiraling costs and increasing numbers of cloud platforms, services, and tools many organizations are facing.
The Edgio Applications Platform comprises three components – Performance, accelerating web applications and APIs; Sites, an integrated web application development platform; and Security, a holistic security solution that ensures the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of web applications and APIs. By providing these three solutions in one integrated platform, Edgio helps companies make their web applications safer, faster, and more reliable.
Critical new capabilities of Applications v7 include:
- Integrated app-aware global CDN with advanced dynamic caching enables teams to easily deliver lightning-fast websites while improving developer velocity
- Proprietary decision engine, powered by machine learning, enables dual Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) to mitigate evolving threats at the edge in real-time
- Edge Insights allows teams to garner critical analytic insights for Edgio Performance and Security in one place
- Point-and-click configuration enables easy configuration of Edgio services without developer intervention
- Unified console provides actionable insights, deep observability, and centralized alert management for every component of the Applications Platform, all controlled via a single pane of glass
“Edgio Applications v7 helps ensure that businesses give their customers sub-second performance consistently, regardless of location or load, resulting in higher conversion rates, better user experiences and ultimately more revenue,” said Ajay Kapur, CTO and General Manager, Applications, at Edgio. “We cannot wait to see what our users will build next using these high-performance edge caching, serverless compute and security capabilities at the edge of one of the world’s largest global networks.”
Edgio Applications v7 is available immediately.
